Father's Day Games (Lopez, Guerrero, no DSL)
QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Jun 19, 2017 -> 04:23 PM) He should have been 1/4. His 2nd single was a pop up to CF that Meadows lost in the sun at the last second. Everything balances out in the end. There was a game I watched where he should've been 2-3, BB if it wasn't for a web gem and a terrible strike 3 call on him (ended up finishing 1-4).

I highly doubt GarPax has the balls to pull this off regardless if it's the absolute smart move to rebuild this thing.

Updated teams interested in Q
QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 19, 2017 -> 10:00 AM) You don't like Chance Adams? I really like him. No, I was responding to the "to date he is" post about Mateo. My mistake on the confusion there. Funny thing is, I thought you were talking about Spencer Adams as far as being underrated on lists, not Chance.

Updated teams interested in Q
QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 19, 2017 -> 09:54 AM) To date he is, but Adams would be underrated in rankings. I wasn't a fan of his last offseason when Yankee rumors were surfacing with my post history here. I have personal favorite spects in different systems (including ours). I didn't like him then either. Reminds me alot of Ruddy Yan and I know my old prospect heads here remember him back in the day (and I don't even think he's as good).

Updated teams interested in Q
QUOTE (steveno89 @ Jun 19, 2017 -> 08:41 AM) I'm down for Frazier + Adams + Florial for sure, but Mateo gives me pause. He is very overrated as a prospect, no doubt. Was never a fan of his.

Who would you be most upset if the Sox traded them?
QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 19, 2017 -> 05:13 AM) https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2017/06/taki...-white-sox.html Leury or Carlos SANCHEZ to play SS for Orioles with Hardy out (depends on offers, obviously) Yolmer...

Zavala doesn't get talked about enough here. Kid has been very good this year.

I see Vinicio got demoted to AA. Franklin Perez is dominating W-S right now.

Fantastic Starts and Where to Not Find Them
QUOTE (Tony @ Jun 17, 2017 -> 04:34 PM) Not only will you not admit to being wrong (twice with these threads) but you completely shifted your original argument. "Facts" presented by ron: -The Sox shouldn't play Abreu until June (That would be dumb) -He's been "figured out" (That was also dumb) -Last year, the same thread was started ON THE EXACT SAME DATE (Dumb, but funny) -Claimed Abreu has "no pop" left in his bat (Ha, dumb) -Criticized him for being fat?!? (Super, extra dumb) -Now is on the "well he is good but only when the pressure is off." (Still dumb, but we're making progress!) Good work, ron. QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jun 17, 2017 -> 04:51 PM) 3x, in fact. This one, this one, and this one. Good lord. I don't think I've seen ownage like this since Quinarvy was killing Lillian about his left handedness fantasies.

6/16 Games (Giolito, Kopech, Dunning)
QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 16, 2017 -> 08:24 PM) Kopech's command starting to be an issue in his starts. He needs a breather His numbers this season remind me of Neal Cotts when I was following him back in the day.

6/15 Games
QUOTE (2005thxfrthmmrs @ Jun 15, 2017 -> 07:47 PM) Take the DSL walk number with a HUGE grain of salt. Pitchers have no control down there. 14 walks to 9 K between the two teams today. I feel much better looking at the box score and seeing 0 strikeouts for him. Obviously he's not being challenged.

Draft Day Three - discussion thread, Tracker in OP
QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 14, 2017 -> 09:06 AM) Ace, Are these guys , for the most part anyways, players that have signaled they aren't interested in signing? Burns for sure is going to Auburn.https://mobile.twitter.com/TannerBurnsAU/st...727362742583296 McConnell and Mace are very unlikely according to Cahill from BA https://mobile.twitter.com/tedcahill/status...762145434664960 No idea about the other high school prospects on the list. And yea.. saw Beck has a stress fracture in his back. No wonder he's still on the board.

Draft Day Three - discussion thread, Tracker in OP
BA's best available top 10. #38 Tanner Burns - RHP (Decatur, H.S ) #39 Brady McConnell - SS (Merritt Island, H.S.) #41 Tristan Beck - RHP (Stanford) *mentioned him since day 2. Shocked he's still on the board. That back injury must be serious* #62 Garrett Mitchell - OF (Orange Lutheran, H.S.) #69 Jake Eder - LHP (Calvary Christian Academy, Fort Lauderdale) *really like the scouting report on this kid, but he'll be a very tough signing* #73 Bryce Bonnin - RHP (Barber's Hill, H.S.) #75 Greg Jones - SS (Cary, H.S.) #76 Chris McMahon - RHP (West Chester, H.S.) #82 Daniel Cabrera - OF (Parkview Baptist, H.S.) #87 Blaine Knight - RHP (Arkansas) *ranked one spot after Luis Gonzalez And there's guys like Mace, Hurt, Drohan, Van Eyk, Campbell, Williams, etc. (Burns, Eder, McConnell, Mace, Schwarz are considered tough signings however)

Which young Sox hitter/s are you most excited about?
QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Jun 14, 2017 -> 08:22 AM) Raw power no doubt, but prior to this major league stint, in game power wasn't much different for them at Charlotte. Where I was going. I watched Davidson for years in the minors. That was one of his best assets as a prospect. Just don't see Nicky generating that in game or not. We'll see.
-

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Jun 14, 2017 -> 07:30 AM) - He is Davidson with a worse glove. He doesn't have near the power as Davidson, nor the strikeout rate.

Painful and Difficult situation
Their might be a team that takes him today in the later rounds since their won't be a pick value.
